What did Jacques Costeau saw at the bottom of Lake Tahoe?

the mid 1970’s renowned french oceanographer, Jacques Cousteau, supposedly lead an expedition to explore the depths of Lake Tahoe. While submerged
in the lake Cousteau reportedly had an encounter with something so terrifying that he refused to reveal any information to the public on what he had
seen. Sources close to Cousteau quoted him as saying “The world is not ready for what is down there!” To make matters worse, Cousteau never
revealed any of his data or film footage regarding what may be the most important and incredible freshwater encounter by a known expert in the field
of Marine Biology.

What did he encounter at the bottom of Lake Tahoe that would lead him to such a reaction? Unfortunately Jacques Cousteau has since passed away, taking
with him all evidence of what he saw in Lake Tahoe. Could it be an unknown animal to science?

Ok so I gives you the star and flag because, Jack Gusto was the man, he was the water Chuck Norris.
For that reason alone I do not think that Jack would have been skeered of anything.
BTW 100 golden internet points to the first one to tell me where Jack Gusto (the name) came from.

down there"..... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I actually looked it up, and my conclusion is......the first name is french (as is he), and I'm assuming the last name came from his father (as his
parents names are Cousteau as well.).

...could be missing something, but I'm pretty sure he has had that name since birth.
And how did I know that was going to be a pic of Chatullu.

I have heard rumors from the locals that say there are hundreds of perfectly preserved bodies of workers from china that have been down there for
over a hundred years. I don't know if this is true, but maybe someone here has heard the same thing? The story is that this was how they got rid of
the bodies of people who died, did not work hard enough, or were unneeded after jobs were complete. I don't know, but This is what the locals said he
found when he went down there. I heard this story about eight years ago, when on a short visit, otherwise I have never heard of his expedition.
